§

4146. Public shooting grounds; establishment

The commissioner

may establish public shooting grounds on land acquired or controlled by and

under the jurisdiction of the department. The commissioner may, for a specified

period of time, prohibit or regulate the taking of wild animals in accordance

with law on any part or parts of such lands. He or she may also make such

regulations as may be necessary for the proper protection and management of

such lands. At least 30 days before such a prohibition or regulation takes

effect, she or he shall file a copy of same in the office of the town clerk of

the town in which such lands lie, and shall cause the same to be published

three times in a newspaper having general circulation in such area. Any part or

parts of such shooting grounds which are closed against the taking of game

shall be surrounded by suitable notices, as prescribed by the commissioner,

placed at conspicuous places along such boundaries. (Added 1961, No. 119, § 1;

amended 1991, No. 230 (Adj. Sess.), § 15.)
